Newly revealed footage from preliminary witness statements in the Garlasco murder case features Alberto Stasi, the convicted killer of Chiara Poggi, asserting his and the victim’s non-smoking habits. Stasi points to the presence of cigarette ash found at the crime scene as contradictory evidence, suggesting someone else was present. The footage was obtained by the Pavia Public Prosecutor’s office and recently aired on the Italian program “Quarto Grado.” This revelation potentially re-opens scrutiny of details surrounding the 2007 murder. Stasi maintains his innocence despite a prior conviction. Investigators are re-examining the evidence in light of this new information. The case continues to draw public attention due to lingering questions about the circumstances of Poggi’s death.
